The very silhouette of the Arts and Crafts era established on 859 square metres in a garden-Eden of its own and forming part of Epsom's more historic streetscapes, this Double Grammar home affords a deeply coveted opportunity only a short stroll to Epsom Girls Grammar, Newmarket, and Epsom's premier lifestyle offerings.

Brick-built and time-honoured, 39 Owens is a long-standing testament to the character and charm of traditional family values. Passing under the archway, a home of stately proportions accommodates formal and informal living with four beautiful bedrooms.

Choose to relax fireside in one of two classic family rooms, banquet in the dining area with French doors to the gardens or host spur-of-the-moment gatherings around a country-style kitchen and family zone, which transition to the alfresco areas. The north-facing gardens are something to behold; landscaped, private and mature, they have a story-book effect that perfectly complements the period and welcomes garden parties on the terraces. A modern bathroom is located upstairs, while a second bathroom serves at ground level. A tandem carport garage and garden-cottage shed add to the conveniences.

During the current custodians 15-year ownership, the house has seen significant care and attention with a new roof, insulation, air ventilation, heat pumps, plush carpeting and more. Rich Art Nouveau detailing, including the carved staircase statuette, wall panelling, ornate gas and woodburning fireplaces, coffered ceilings and stained-glass windows, reflect the nuances of a true Craftsman home.

Touted as one of Auckland's blue-chip positions, Auckland Grammar School, Epsom Girls Grammar, Newmarket's highlife, Epsom's coffee houses and amenities, and landmark reserves are within strolling distance, while motorway access is around the bend.

As the owners are now downsizing, this is an exclusive and genuine trophy to present to market....
